Copper

Totally Informal Transglobal Challenge 27 march 08 "Precious Metal"


Cosmo Castorini: “There are three kinds of pipe. There's aluminum, which is garbage. There's bronze, which is pretty good, unless something goes wrong. And something always goes wrong. Then, there's COPPER, which is the only pipe I use. It costs money. It costs money because it saves money.”

Cosmo Castorini, the plumber character, (played by Vincent Gardenia),
in Norman Jewison movie
“ Moonstruck”
With: Cher, Nicolas Cage, Olympia Dukais, Danny Aiello.
